"Would you eat them in a box ..... would you eat them with a fox?" These familiar lines enjoyed by generations of children are set to music in the children's opera Green Eggs and Ham. Young audiences are encouraged to join the performance in interactive sessions which build their knowledge and appreciation of classical music. Western Illinois University's Opera-On-Wheels brings Green Eggs and Ham to west central Illinois schools and communities beginning February 2009. The one-act opera runs approximately 45 minutes in length and is appropriate for kindergarten-5th grade audiences.
